Hartlepool Neighbourhood Officers are calling for the public’s help after a group of youths on off-road motorbikes wreaked havoc in the Headland area over the weekend.
Disturbing images and videos were shared with police by concerned residents after multiple young riders were spotted on Saturday (May 10) tearing up grass, creating excessive noise, and intimidating those walking through the neighbourhood.
Community Snaps Riders in Action
Residents say the youths were seen riding aggressively, ignoring the presence of families, and leaving visible damage to public green spaces.
Neighbourhood officers have warned that action will be taken where possible, including seizing bikes and prosecuting riders for road traffic offences and anti-social behaviour.
